This week's revelations that George
W. Bush and Tony Blair considered staging a war provocation by painting a US spy
plane in UN colors and flying it over Iraq, in the hope that Saddam would order
it shot down, illustrates a desperate depth of criminality only rivaled by
previous notorious historical examples.

Philippe Sands, a QC and professor
of international law at University College, London, unearthed documents that
shadow even the Downing Street memo in terms of direct and unequivocal
confirmation that the war was deliberate and planned from the very start and
that any pretext to garner international support for it would be considered and
utilized.

The US government considered
staging an act of provocation that would fool the world into supporting an
unpopular war.

This tactic is by no means new. The
Gulf of Tonkin incident, where US warships were apparently attacked by North
Vietnamese PT Boats, an incident that kicked off US involvement in the Vietnam
war, was a staged event that never actually took place. Declassified LBJ presidential tapes discuss how to spin the non-event to escalate it as justification for
air strikes and the NSA faked intelligence data to make it appear as if two US ships had been
lost.

Operation Northwoods,
Pearl Harbor and
the attack on the USS Liberty are other
historical examples where the same method of staged provocation was either
considered or directly used in an attempt to start a conflict.

Sands (pictured above) appeared on
the Alex Jones Show and shed more light on the documents and their implication
for the power structure in London and Washington DC.

Sands called Bush and Blair's place
in history a "legacy of criminality" and stated that when they leave office they
will likely face "Pinochet style proceedings" for their actions.

Despite advice from Blair's
advisors and the forecasts of the CIA, the documents exposed by Sands betray a
complete ignorance for the possibility of Iraq turning into the quagmire that it
is today.

Sands indicated to Jones that his
contacts deep inside Blair's inner circle had leaked the original documents.
This highlights a substantial degree of division within the halls of Downing
Street and lends hope to the possibility of similar leaks occurring.

Sands concluded that the 'White
House Meeting Memo' laid bare one simple fact, that "definitively, they knew
there was no evidence and they were reduced to plotting these types of
shenanigans."

Sands pondered the possible
personal ramifications of releasing the documents, noting that the British
government had sought to prosecute individuals who had previously blown the
whistle.

"I suppose the possibility can't be
excluded that they may come after me but I suspect they will be concerned about
what else is out there and if I were them I would want to kick the story into
touch, get rid of it, and that's not done by prosecuting people," said
Sands.

Sands remained confident that more
whistleblowers will come forward and weaken the power base of an arrogant
trans-Atlantic power monopoly already soaked in blood and attempting to sell
more wars based on spin and deception.

"As President Bush's power, as Tony
Blair's power begins to fade away, they're beginning to speak out, they're
beginning to release documents, they're beginning to realize that the tide has
turned, that's the big change that has happened. There's a lot more material
that's going to come out and it's not going to make a pretty
picture."
